For simulations involving complex objects, a number of different properties must be represented. An example of this is in modeling an object undergoing combustion—heat amounts,...
This paper describes a method for creating a well-shaped, layered tetrahedral mesh of a thin-walled solid by adapting the surface triangle sizes to the estimated wall thickness. T...
In an industry project with a German car manufacturer we are faced with the challenge of placing a maximum number of uniform rigid rectangular boxes in the interior of a car trunk...

Geometric constraint solving is a key issue in CAD/CAM. Since Owen’s seminal paper, solvers typically use graph based decomposition methods. However, these methods become diffi...
In the parametric feature based design paradigm, most features possess arguments that are subsets of the boundary of the current model, subsets defined interactively by user sele...
